The Compromised Fanconi Anemia Pathway in Prelamin A‐Expressing Cells Contributes to Replication Stress‐Induced Genomic Instability
Abstract: Genomic instability is not only a hallmark of senescent cells but also a key factor driving cellular senescence, and replication stress is the main source of genomic instability. Defective prelamin A processing caused by lamin A/C (LMNA) or zinc metallopeptidase STE24 (ZMPSTE24) gene mutations results in premature aging. Although previous studies have shown that dysregulated lamin A interferes with DNA replication and causes replication stress, the relationship between lamin A dysfunction and replication stress remains largely unknown. Here, an increase in baseline replication stress and genomic instability is found in prelamin A‐expressing cells. Moreover, prelamin A confers hypersensitivity of cells to exogenous replication stress, resulting in decreased cell survival and exacerbated genomic instability. These effects occur because prelamin A promotes MRE11‐mediated resection of stalled replication forks. Fanconi anemia (FA) proteins, which play important roles in replication fork maintenance, are downregulated by prelamin A in a retinoblastoma (RB)/E2F‐dependent manner. Additionally, prelamin A inhibits the activation of the FA pathway upon replication stress. More importantly, FA pathway downregulation is an upstream event of p53‐p21 axis activation during the induction of prelamin A expression. Overall, these findings highlight the critical role of FA pathway dysfunction in driving replication stress‐induced genomic instability and cellular senescence in prelamin A‐expressing cells.
